New sentencing trial date set for Laura Hall
A new sentencing trial for the woman convicted of tampering with evidence in the 2005 murder of Jennifer Cave was supposed to begin Tuesday.
Lawyer Joe James Sawyer said the trial has now been pushed back to August.
In 2007, Laura Hall was sentenced to five years in prison for tampering with evidence and helping cover up the murder of Cave.
Two years later, an appeals court ruled prosecutors withheld evidence, and the court gave Hall a new sentencing hearing.
Hall was convicted of helping Colton Pitonyak dismember Cave's body and flee with him to Mexico in August 2005.
Cave, 21, was found shot, stabbed and partially dismembered in Pitonyak's West Campus apartment.
Pitonyak was convicted of Cave's murder and sentenced to 55 years in prison.
No exact date of the trial was given.
